Rating 4 out of 5 starts:We had a nice stay overall! The host was friendly, responsive, and provided clear instructions, which made check-in very smooth. The location was great and we appreciated how organized the house was — the labeled cabinets were especially helpful. Definitely not for anyone who can’t do a lot of stairs. There are a few small maintenance items that could use attention, but nothing that took away from our trip. Overall, it’s a comfortable home with a lot of potential, and we enjoyed our time here!

Great beachy condo, short walk to beach and 2 pools. We loved our stay with Laurie. The condo was just the right size for a family of 4 and centrally located to all of Emerald Isle. Having access to a fully stocked kitchen and washer/dryer made life with kiddos easy. Check in/out instructions were clear and easy. Beds were very comfortable! Balconies were great too. Bring your own sheets/towels and prepare for stairs but totally worth it! Thanks Laurie-we will be back soon!

We had a great stay, the location was perfect with a short walk to the beach and everything you need (chairs, umbrellas, etc) conveniently at the condo. There is also a water park, shops, and restaurants within walking distance and two grocery stores right across the road.
